A bipartisan deal to avoid the shutdown is there. But McConnell refuses to let Senate vote on it.

Four months later, a bipartisan group of senators announced that they’d reached consensus on a DACA replacement bill: Even though the president and GOP leadership had claimed to support legal status for Dreamers as an end in itself (and thus should have been prepared to support legislation that does nothing but that), Democrats nonetheless agreed to back a Dream Act that includes funding for Trump’s border wall, limits on the ability of legal U.S. residents to sponsor their adult children for immigration, and a reduction in diversity visas — provisions championed by Republicans and loathed by the progressive base.

...

The Trump administration rejected a bipartisan Senate proposal to protect young undocumented immigrants from deportation, saying it needed more work.

...

A bipartisan immigration agreement is picking up the support of several additional GOP senators despite opposition from President Trump and the White House.

...

Graham and Durbin plan to push forward with their bipartisan plan, but Senate Majority Leader McConnell has stated that he won’t consider any bill that doesn’t have Trump’s support, making him complicit in all of this.

So, a deal is there. It has increasing bipartisan support, it will resolve DACA, and it will keep the government open. If McConnell stood behind it, he certainly could get it over the 60 vote threshold. But he won’t even allow a vote on it. He stands behind the Continuing Resolution that is bleeding even Republican support, because that’s the one Trump wants. It’s his choice. It’s Trump’s choice.

A deal is there. It has already been reached. It's nicknamed the Graham-Durbin-plan. And it has bipartisan support.

There would be no shutdown if McConnell had allowed a vote on the Graham-Durbin-plan.
